Happy first day of school to all our new Hornets! We hope your first day of kindergarten is filled with fun, learning, and friends. Share your first day photos at info@bryantschools.org to be featured on our social media!
Bryant Public Schools is pleased to announce that breakfasts and lunches will be served to all students at NO CHARGE during the 2021-2022 school year.
It is not necessary to complete a meal application for free or reduced priced meals as the United States Department of Agriculture has extended meal benefits to all students at this time. For households who wish to complete a meal application, the documents are available at https://www.bryantschools.org/page/free-and-reduced-lunch-online-application.
These meal benefits do not include a la carte (extra milk or food) items sold in the cafeteria. If students wish to purchase items a la carte, they will need to have money for those purchases in their meal accounts. Meal payment may be made at ezschoolpay.com ($3 fee applies) or at each school office. Money will not be accepted in the cafeteria.
Menus
Menus are available on the district website and app.
